Cool, added a bunch of stuff. It's mostly PRIDE stuff since UFC are so completely anal about DMCA takedowns on Youtube. If anyone can find full UFC fights under goofy/fake names, though, please add them to the queue.

Aw piss, I just noticed that all the stuff I added last night will be gone by later today. Is there any way to implement the revolving list like the /wooo/tube channel has so the list won't empty out during activity?

>>53050430 viewers for tonight's UFC PPV, that's fucking awesome. Now that we can custom embed streams, we'll be using /mma/tube on TaimaTV now instead of TaimaTube so expect more UFC PPV events and perhaps even Ultimate Fighter, Fight Night, and UFC on Fox shows to be streamed.

We're not promoting tonight to outsiders, so don't expect any craziness in http://taima.tv/r/mma. It'll be pretty much just like the IRC room except with a stream in the same window, so now is the prefect night for the board veterans to get a taste of the room and make what they will of it.

>>53293Yeah I mean the UFC on Fox and Fight Night shows are basically like Raw and Smackdown to the PPVs so yeah obviously we'll have less viewers than we would but you're right, tonight is a good introduction for board regulars.

I apologize about not doing a stream for Glory. I made it easier so anyone that's registered can embed their own streams so myself or another mod in the room don't always have to. All you have to do is get the embed code for the stream that's either iobject or iframe and then copypaste it in the custom embed box after you click the button for it and then add it to the playlist.

>>53621It's really why we're only able to stream UFC and Bellator most of the time and occasional stuff like Glory and WSOF. If there's an MMA show you wanna watch, try to seek out a stream with an embed code and let me or another tube mod know.

I would be but I just don't think we're a popular enough board. The majority of people only come in for live cards. It's a nice idea though, maybe we could show them after the live shows or inbetween two fight cards or something.

>>54640Yeah unfortunately the tube is only really active for live events and The Ultimate Fighter. It would probably be too late to do it after live shows at night but if you did it on Saturday afternoons before or in between shows or Wednesday nights leading into TUF, that could work.

Just wanted to say I caught a little of the Bellator replay with Ortiz vs. Bonnar, and I'm impressed with the production values. Better entrances than most TNA guys get. Also, that ref's mustache is ridiculous.

Hendo was more or less legit KO'd by Mousassi. Mousassi landed a good punch that mini-stunned Hendo, and while Hendo recovered while still on his feet, at that point he had already started to fall and couldn't recover balance, and ended up sitting down on his ass against the cage. Mousassi ran over and hesitated in dealing "the finishing blow", and this probably played a big part in the referee stopping the fight as the referee couldn't actually see Hendo. And fighters usually only do that when someone is clean out.

The real problem is that Mousassi respected Hendo too much and didn't blasted him full power in the face and really hurt him when he should have. That way nobody could complain afterwards. But as far as I am concerned Mousassi legit beat Hendo.

Gustafsson was doing well but let his guard down with the eye-poking time-out. After the time-out was over he just rushed in the most aggressive he had been in the whole fight, trying to capitalize on Rumble not taking more time to recover. But Rumble was actually recovered and knocked him out using the first opening he found.

I hate the fucking eye-pokes so there's poetic justice in this. And that's coming from a Swede!

Weidman's out of UFC 184 wit ha broken rib, now the Rousey-Zinganpo shitshow is the main event. They should just cancel UFC 184 or offer it on Fox/FS1 at this point after losing the main event, the Jacare-Romero fight and the Mir-Silva fight. Or maybe people still want to pay $65 to watch Rousey destroy a another can. who knows?

>>55160I'm pretty sure Anderson was popped out of competition for it, like Jones' drug test. Doesn't really surprise me given how quick he came back to competing after his leg break. I'd be surprised if he was clean, and that's probably one of the only legitimate reasons to be taking steroids if you're a fighter. Obviously he shouldn't have been competing on them and shouldn't have taken the fight, but you're gonna use PED's to heal and strengthen a broken leg.

Diaz was post-fight test for weed. Don't think there's anything really there to say about that.

No, that's bullshit. Have you ever broken a bone? Did the doctor give you anabolic steroids? No, because that's stupid. There is no excuse for any professional fighter to use anabolic steroids, ever. Injuries, surgeries and broken bones are not an excuse for professional fighters to use anabolic steroids. And if you need HRT because you wrecked your natural production by abusing steroids, then tough shit, you brought that on yourself.

I learned something wild the other day while reading up on that Belator card. I grew up with Belator Middleweight Champion Brandon Halsey. I haven't talked to him since high school, but it's pretty wild that he's having so much success in Belator. I'm hoping he keeps rolling and parlays that into a shot in the UFC. I still remember how he made fart noises behind our 8th grade English teacher's back to make it seem like she was farting.

>>55303A million injuries fucked up the card. Chris Weidman and Vitor Belfort was supposed to happen, Mir vs Bigfoot was supposed to be this card, Magny was supposed to fight Koscheck but they moved him where he won performance of the night.

>Having a circus sideshow Shamrock-Kimbo headline a Bellator event in 2015>Giving Kendall Fucking Grove a Middleweight Title shot over Shlemenko>Running Rampage out of the promotion after a 3-fight winning streak, including beating Bellator's supposed "star" King Mo

Here's tonight's schedule, I should have July's schedule up in /mma/tube probably by tomorrow. Also all UFC shows will be simulcast in /mma/lt from now on and /mma/tube 2 and 3 will be our secondary channels for other shows on at the same time.

Aldo's out due to injury and since Dana has such a massive, raging hard-on for McGregor he's creating an interim title in hopes that McGregor can still be champion by defeating Chad Mendes. Aldo's rightfully annoyed that Dana made an interim title due to an injury that Aldo will be back to fight again from by the end of the year and put out an entertaining press release about the whole thing:

>“For three months, I trained three times a day. I invested my time and money, bringing training partners from Brazil and other countries to do the best training camp of my life so I would be ready to defend my belt for the eighth time on July 11. Unfortunately, I fractured my rib during a training session, which I can prove from an official medical report; and besides trying my best to fight, I was forced the other way and that made me really sad. Only I, my family, coaches and teammates know how hard I worked to represent Brazil again.

>“My decision was made in respect to the UFC and the fans that today see me as the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world. I couldn’t fight without being 100 percent physically and with a rib injury that could get worse if I got hit in the ribs. Many people told me to fight anyway because of the money I could make, but I wouldn’t sell myself for any money, no matter how much. I fight for love and I do it for my country. Money comes in second place. It’s like a shadow: When you try catching it, you can’t, but when you move forward, it follows you. Money ends someday, but legacy and things you do becomes part of the history, and that’s what I value the most.

>“I’m the UFC champion since April 2011, defended my belt seven times in four years and will do it for the eighth time in 2015 -- an average of twice a year; and I’m not even mentioning [the] WEC, a Zuffa-owned company, like the UFC, where I became the champion in 2009 and put my belt on the line twice in less than a year. That [is] why I can’t agree with UFC’s decision to have an interim champion in my division citing the five opportunities that I couldn’t defend my belt.

>“If those fights had occurred, I would have done 12 title fights in four years in the UFC, an average of three fights a year -- something that no other UFC champion did. A UFC champion rarely does three title defenses in one year. So that can’t be the main reason why they are creating an interim title, but the UFC is a private company which I work for, so I can’t complain about its decision, but I can’t say I agree, either.

>“As [for] my opponent, who told me to step up and fight like a man, I can’t say anything about a man that imitates a TV series character (Travis Fimmel, from “Vikings”). That’s really who he wanted to be, because he’s probably ashamed of being who he really is, so he imitates his lines, his style and this actor’s tattoos. He’s an artist, but not from martial arts, but cheap comedy. It’s disrespectful with the actor and with real athletes. He should look for a stage and not an Octagon. The Octagon is my kingdom and there’s place for only one king, which is me. If he wants to participate, he can be the joker he already is.

>“If he beats Chad Mendes, the only thing he will have is a toy belt to show his drunk friends in his country’s bars, because that’s what an interim belt represents to me: a toy. I am the champion.”

I don't know if he had help writing that, but if he didn't then props to him since I had no idea Aldo was so intelligent and eloquent. Also lol @ him completely destroying McGregor by calling him out for being a Travis Fimmel wannabe.

>>56134If you catch Aldo in interviews he definitely talks real and is on point with his fight game analysis, being that he's at the top of the game. The 'interim' belt is bullshit, Cain it made sense because he was out for 2+ years. If McGregor loses this will be the stupidest interim belt considering Aldo just beat Mendes a few months ago.

I'm already tired of the McGregor sideshow and agree with Aldo that he'll disappear after losing to another division to try his sideshow antics there, or leave UFC completely to WWE or b-grade action flicks.

>>56135The reason UFC is doing an interim belt is because of the huge number of people that paid for the gate. UFC believes there would be mass refunds if the main event did not involve a.) Conor McGregor fighting b.) for a title. It's more or less panic move in hopes of keeping the big pay day they were expecting (some analysts were predicting 1 million buys for Aldo vs McGregor, even only two months removed from MayPac). It is what it is, but there's also the question of whether Aldo will even be able to stay in featherweight with the new ban on IVs. I hear he's one of the biggest IV users along with Rafael Dos Anjos.

God, the Raw and UFC streams are awful. There's always some dummy hosting them that thinks he's funny by blasting his ebin meme music at 3x the volume of the show itself. Thankfully the puro streams aren't run by idiots.

Sorry if there's another way to go about reporting this sort of thing that I don't know about, but seems like the taima channel is bringing up those "hacker warning"/"unsafe site" pages... someone said it might be what the source that's streaming is. I don't know, just pointing it out.

I just noticed that Glory is live on ESPN3/WatchESPN right now. Pretty cool, I never got to watch their events on Spike since I haven't had cable for a few years. Here's hoping ESPN keeps dipping their foot in the MMA pond.

Yeah I was pretty surprised when I saw it on the WatchESPN schedule. I guess after Spike canceled Glory they struck a deal with ESPN right away. Mauro Renallo's reaction to the main event's judging was pretty funny, too.

lolputl 1 week ago +United Korean at the end of the day he is human lol. whether you know it or not you can get mentally played especially with someone like mcgregor who can push people's buttons like no other lol. and no i didn't bet on anyone.

United Korean 1 week ago +lolputl You are a Connot fanboy and your gaylord is going to get fucked in the ass like a faggot he is. Period.﻿ Reply ·

wan pisu 1 week ago +United Korean You re going to have a huge mindfuck when Conor wins so be careful when watching﻿ Reply ·

>guy kills his opponent with one punch>opponent TOTALLY DESERVES A REMATCH U GUISE

lol noConor killed him, maybe if Aldo had gone the distance or even lasted longer than 1 fucking round, you might have a case. But he killed him in 13 seconds, Aldo doesn't deserve shit. Back to your favela now peasant

Because there's precedent for this sort of thing in the past when fights ended in a fluke victory, such as when Sylvia first beat Arlovski, Serra beat St. Pierre, and Mir beat Lesnar just off the top of my head. Also there's the whole thing where Aldo was the defending champion and defending champions typically get rematches right away short of an absolute dismantling, and even still Dana & the Fertittas play favorites and do stuff like giving Rousey a rematch right away despite a 6 month medical suspension and her getting completely dismantled over the course of a round and a half.

Anyways, I get it that Dana and a lot of people don't like Aldo, and I don't really care about the guy one way or another, but given the circumstances he deserves a rematch to allow for a definitive answer to who's the all-around better competitor between him and McGregor. And if he get's KO'd again or fights way too defensively and loses a decision (a la Arlovski in his rematch with Syliva) then so be it, but it would be definitive.

Since when is UFC booked on merit?Dana is going to make whatever match is going to make the most on PPV.Nobody likes Aldo and McGregor knocked him the fuck out in record time. Done. On to the next one.

>>56624McGregor just gave a press conference saying how he's moving up to another division to take that belt too, so Dana will give him another title shot immediately while Aldo fights off Edgar and whoever else in that division. Whenever McGregor feels like he'll go back to 145 and defend the belt but won't be for another year at least, nobody gives a fuck about 145lb division

Who else was Couture supposed to fight back then? The division was paper thin at the time. Lesnar was likely going to be fighting for the title earlier had he not lost to Mir in his debut, plus Lesnar had a highly decorated NCAA wrestling career so it wasn't like they were giving a title shot to some bum off the streets, He beat Herring, got a title shot and smokes Couture and Mir in the rematch before he started shitting out his own intestines.

>>56631Are you mini-dana that guy who subs for Dana at post fight press conferences because nobody is buying this. (ahem, CM punk signed with zero amateur fights).

UFC has always had shady matchmaking. Chael Sonnen parachuted into title bouts is a good example. Whoever talks the most, and sells the most PPV wins the title bout lottery that's all that matters. Watch when McGregor moves up divisions, instant title match.

>>56633Further proof is no rematch for Aldo, though Cain, Rousey, and everybody else gets rematches even though Aldo is supposedly the "#1 pound for pound" fighter. There's no money in a rematch but there is money in Edgar VS McGregor or him moving up and fighting dos Anjos.

Eh, Overeem is like a wild card. Sometimes he gives a shit, sometimes he doesn't. Sometimes he's roided-up eating his horse meat, sometimes he's not. I guess Vegas lines just treat him as such, so whether he'll be considered a favorite or underdog is anyone's guess since until he sorts his shit out.

>>56650Well he is a smart guy. Often cocky non the less. After he stopped using steroids you can see he changed his style. Not so aggressive anymore. Even all 3 ufc defeats were clean wins but he got careless. The price was paid.

Still, he's a match from the title in my opinion. Arlovski and Miocic should get it. I mean... one of them. BUT if its a boring draw I could see Overeem getting it since he broke JDS down.

So apparently the only way we can watch Rizin on the 29th is if someone streams it from Fuji TV in Japan, which could possibly be done through KeyHoleTV. The show on the 31st will be on Spike on an hour delay, which will also have highlights from the 29th during the show.

Awww shit, McGregor-Dos Anjos and Holm-Tate are official for 197. Glad some intelligence prevailed between Dana & Silva and they let Holm defend her title instead of having her wait 8 months while Ronda fucks off and lets TMZ photograph her vagina. This should make up nicely for the shitshow that 196 is shaping up to be, which is a shame since the Super Bowl Sunday shows used to be one of the biggest, if not the biggest, shows of the year.

Man, it's seriously becoming a pain to watch on /mma/. I know, I know, it's a free stream and I sound retarded for complaining about it but with Beaced banning anyone that disagrees with anything he says and the same unfunny videos being spammed every goddamn five minutes. I wouldn't mind the videos so much if the post-show interviews and analysis were still shown but they're not and unrelated videos get spammed instead. It's the same five videos all the fucking time too.

>>56704I talked to the orange admins and we're gonna have the UFC Post-fight show in /mma/lt similar to how we have the Raw Pre-show in /wooo/alt. As for Beaced, he's been warned about keeping his emotions in check and not being trigger-happy with banning people. /mma/tube is a bit disorganized compared to /wooo/tube since /mma/tube is only really active during live events but we'll try to be better about that sort of stuff.

>More liberal 10-8s, if a fighter demonstrates an excess of any two of dominance, duration, or damage, a 10-8 should be considered. If a round has all three in favor of one fighter, it MUST be scored 10-8

>A Jon Jones clause. You're not allowed to have your fingers out pointed to an opponent's face, it will constitute a warning and eyepokes resulting from it will be a point loss instead of a warning

>Heel strikes to the kidneys and grabbing clavicles are now allowed

>All references to "damage" have been changed to "impact" because "damage" sounds too scary (lol)

>New Jersey has REJECTED these new rules and will use the old rules, the reasoning being that encouraging more strikes to the head with the new "downed" definition is too dangerous

>New rules are expected to go into effect by January 1, 2017. They come from the Association of Boxing Commissions and are not necessarily required to be accepted by state commission (see: New Jersey)

>>57387That's the scariest one for me. I fucking hate getting bear-clawed so much, would prefer a bicep slicer to that shit. Can't wait until some Brock Lesnar-tier genetic freak comes along and rips some poor guys chest open with his bare hands.

I just had an entire Starbucks restaurant break out in hysterical laughing after I clicked on the video...Should have read the tweets that reply to this first lol Kinda embarrassing but everyone is laughing and not trippin so..
